Hello all,
I was recording a session (using /examples/basic/rec-auto.ck -s) and I recieved
the following error about a quarter of the way through:
_______
chuck(366,0xa000ed98) malloc: *** vm_allocate(size=10604544) failed (error
code=3)
chuck(366,0xa000ed98) malloc: *** error: can't allocate region
chuck(366,0xa000ed98) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in szone_error to debug
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
what(): St9bad_alloc
Abort trap
_______
This is a relatively large session (ca. 6.5 hours), and at the time the .wav file size
was about 514MB (out of a projected 1.5-2.0GB). There was more than adequate
room on the hard disk to recieve the file and the CPU was not busy with other
tasks. The machine is running OS X.4.6 with Dual 1.25 GHz G4 and 512 MB
RAM.
My questions:
a.) what happened?
b.) how can I avoid having it happen again?
Thanks for chuck -- I am enjoying it very much!
